Dhaka Second Division Football League

The Dhaka Second Division Football League (Bengali: ঢাকা দ্বিতীয় বিভাগ ফুটবল লিগ) is the fourth-tier football league in Bangladesh and the second-highest league division in Dhaka. It was officially founded in 1948 as the league below the First Division Football League when Bangladesh was part of Pakistan.

Until 1992, it served as the second-tier of Bangladeshi football before being replaced by the now-defunct Dhaka First Division Football League (1993–2006 second-tier version). In 2012, the league was further demoted to become the fourth-tier of the country's football league system. The two top-finishing teams are automatically promoted to the Dhaka Senior Division League. The bottom two teams are automatically relegated to the Dhaka Third Division League.

The league is the second-highest division of semi-professional football in the country and is run by the Dhaka Metropolitan Football Committee under the supervision of the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF).

On 10 November 2022, Bangladesh Football Federation found both BG Press Sports and Recreation Club and Khilgaon Football Academy guilty of match-fixing. Both clubs were also fined Tk5 lakhs each. BG Press had three points deducted, while the club general secretary, Shikdar Moshiur Rahman, head coach Md Delowar Hossain and team manager Md Rafiqul Islam Sarkar, were banned from football activities for six months. Five players of BG Press – Salman Rahman, Mostafizur Rahman, Shahin Alam Pranto, Swadhin Biswas and Mehedi Hasan were also banned for six months, while Md Tanis Mia has been suspended for three months. Khilgaon Football Academy were already relegated from the league, and the club's president Hazi Md Nazrul Islam, general secretary Md Rafiqul Islam, head coach Md Habibur Rahman and team manager Faruk Ahmed were banned from taking part in football activities for six months.
